Biography
Edward Millward was born in Cardiff, Wales in June 1930, and he became a lecturer before becoming involved with the nationalist Plaid Cymru party. He failed in his 1966 and 1970 campaigns for Parliament, but he served as Vice President of Plaid Cymru from 1966 to 1968. He stood down in 1968 to tutor Prince Charles in the Welsh language ahead of his investiture; he pressured the young English prince to learn Welsh history, including the life of Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, whom the Welsh idolized (Charles had humiliated the University of Wales at Aberystwyth's faculty by not knowing about the university's library or about Llywelyn). Millward did not let his nationalist views stand in the way of his tutoring of Charles, as he believed that every student had the right to an education; he later came to befriend Charles. He later became Plaid's spokesman on water policy, and he became a Welsh lecturer at Aberystwyth during the 1980s.
